Powerful Metso XM500 slurry pump successfully tested and ready for a slag granulation plant
A major milestone for Lutze Process Belux BV: the successful ISO test of a powerful Metso XM500 slurry pump at Metso’s factory in Sala, Sweden. This pump – a true powerhouse – is part of a larger order of high-performance Metso slurry pumps, all destined for an industrial slag granulation plant.

Engineered for the toughest slurry applications
Specifically designed for extremely high-capacity and wear-intensive applications, the Metso XM500 slurry pump combines robust construction with advanced hydraulic performance. Once operational, this pump will handle an impressive slurry throughput of approximately 2,150 m³/h – a true demonstration of its capability.
A complete pump package
In addition to the XM500, the delivery includes several models from Metso’s MM and HM ranges: MM400, MM350, MM200, and HM250. These belong to the well-proven Orion Series – a trusted line of horizontal slurry pumps used globally for efficient and reliable slurry handling in mining, metallurgy, and residue processing.
The combination of XM and MM/HM pumps ensures a perfect match for the various process stages within the slag granulation plant, from coarse particles to fine slurry.
